7MTT -- Migrate to NVE volume in cDOT 9.1

Bit of a bleeding edge case here, but can't seem to find this answer.

 

If using 7MTT to migrate a 7-mode volume to cDOT 9.1 -- can we specify that the volume be encrypted using NVE on the new controller?

 

Otherwise (if I've read the NVE documentation correctly), I'd have to perform a vol move to encrypt that volume.   That will be an issue with very large volumes (35TB) -- won't have that much space to play around with.

 

I realize this may be more of a Request for Enhancement for 7MTT -- just curious if there's any discussion on this scenario yet.

The system was upgraded last week from Ontap 8.2.1 to 8.3.2P6. The upgrade went smoooth with no problems. Clients can access the NetApp. But when i look at the NetApp with Grafana/Harvest tool i see the CPU  being high, mainly by one process. I looked up what HOSTOS does but it does not explain how or why this process is at 667%. Anybody a idea?

Tasks owned by the BSD layer including NTP, environmental sensor monitoring, ZAPI handling, autosupport

Hi,

 

I have two 10G ports and I need to configure as NIC bond like in linux.

 

Each port is connected to two different switches (Two different hardware vendor).

 

Both ports has to communicate with single IP and should load balance the traffic like round robin.

 

OS: ontap 8.1.4 7 mode

 

Please help for this setup and also let me is any configuration is needed in switching side

 

Thanks

I want to know how to use the serial_number of "Job history" and "ems log".

The maximum value of the serial_number is  2^64-1 as far as I was confirmed.

The next 2^64-1 return to 0?
Product specification does not return to zero?
(Because the maximum value is greater)

Hi there.

 

I´m trying to accomidate a customer to set up auditing on their SMB vserver.

 

There are no problem activating it, and it writes to the log file.

But it´s not capturing the event the customer is after.

 

They want to see if anyone change permission on a folder.

Is that even possible?

 

As i understand it´s "4670: Permissions on an object were changed" that they need.

 

I have read tr-4189 and found the list of event IDs the controller is logging.
4670 is not avaialable... but 4663 is and it captures "Read/Write Object Get/Set Object attributes"

 

Should the "change permission" be available in that eventID, or is it impossible to audit folder permission changes on a NetApp vserver?

 

(Running cDOT 8.3.1)

Can anyone help me out i am facing the same issue.

 

I have already taken these step to fix the issue:

1- Host to storage connectivity - OK

2- New snapvault is also not getting initialize and giving same error

3- Tried the new snapvault  relationship with server's IP instead of name but failed

4- httpd.access                 all

5- checked    /etc/hosts  entry is correct.

I've been asking 'round about the latest ONTAP release code names.

Got an answer back from the local Dallas NetApp office today:

 

Full Steam – ONTAP 8.3

LongBoard – ONTAP 9.0

LongBoard.1 – ONTAP 9.1

Harpoon – ONTAP 9.2

Fat Tire – ONTAP 9.3

 

Is this list accurate ?

I plan to enable inline data compaction but the volume already has large amuont of data. Does data compaction act on the existing data?

Hi,

I am new to Netapp.

We recently bought 2 filers with 12 disks each : FAS2552  - NetApp Release 8.2.3P3 7-Mode

Since the aggr  already took 6 disks (3 for each controller), I am thinking of  simply adding the remaining 6 disks to it and create my data volume there (alongside the root volume).

 

Is this recommended ?  if not, are there any issues with regard to system stabliity and performance that I need to be aware of ?

 

thanks in advance.

Hello all,

 

I have 9 SSD's on my storage system. I want to ask, whether I use those SSD for tiering (as storage pool) and simultaneosly for standard data aggreate. 9 X 400 SSD provide me net 2TB usable space in Raid dp .And I want in this same raid group split %50 for tiering %50 for data read&write operations. Is that possible?

 

thanks

I have a snapmirror cascade  A --> B --> C   

 

I need to run a test of this where the site containing A and B is down and I want to run on the C copy,  then when the site with A and B is fixed  reverse the sync.   

 

If I update, quiesce ,  then break the B --> C mirror then I can use the C to write data.    However then when I try operations reverse resync  i get  message the the volume is part of a cascade and to delete the other snapmirrors 

 

How can I reverse the copy so that A becomes the primary again without a full copy of the data again.

Hi All,

 

Recently, I revert the AFF8020 from cDOT 9.1 to cDOT 8.3.2P5, but there is some strange condition afterward.

 

The System Manager and Command line can't enable inline dedupe

 

The error as below:

 

DATA ONTAP APF failed: Inline Deduplication requires an effective cluster version of DATA ONTAP 8.3.2 or later

 

Please help to share your experience to see how it solves.

 

Many thanks.

Hi,

 

on netapp 7mode metro with a pair of filers the root volume vol0 became full because of abnormal growth of logs, i'd expect panic alert and take over to the other node 

Netapp just became slow, responded only to some hosts, randomly , why it didn't move automatically to the other node ?

then manual takeover was performed and all started to work normally. My concern is why it didn't happen automatically ?

 

Regards

Exp

Hello all,

 

I have in a 7 mode customer following issue;

 

They have defined quotas for AD users with CIFS shares to user self data. For normal users is defined 15 GB quotas and for admins 30 GB quotas. But over time, some users have space problems. They have enough space in Netapp share even then it seen by windows side no space. Also, when the users login to our windows machine their shares will appear full even if is not full and when the user click to that full(!) share,they see nothing. I attach a file,how it seem.
